| Item Title: | LDC19-007 Care Facilities Update | | Date: | 7/22/2019 | | Department: | Planning & Economic Opportunity |
|
| | | | | | | | | Background: | Recently, the Planning & Zoning Board recommended approval of an ordinance allowing adult day care centers as a conditional use in residential districts (adopted in Ord, 2019-05).
Now, Staff is proposing a draft ordinance to amend the commercial zoning districts to permit this use either as a conditional use or permitted use. Also proposing changes to allow child care centers as a permitted use in the Commercial Neighborhood (CN) and Commercial General districts. This ordinance would also introduce a definition for Assisted Living Facilities and replaces outdated terms in commercial and Open Rural districts where such facilities were historically permitted.
While Staff endorses the proposed amendments to introduce updated uses and terminology in the code, it is clear that to fully address the current variety of residential care and congregate living facilities will require more research and Staff will continue discussions with the Planning & Zoning Board about on this subject.
This is the second of two required public hearings on this ordinance. | | Request: | Second public hearing for consideration of LDC19-007, an Ordinance amending Article 15, Commercial, Neighborhood; Amending Article 15-A, Commercial, Neighborhood-American Beach; Amending Article 16, Commercial, General; Of The Land Development Code, Amending Article 16-A, Commercial, General -American Beach; Amending Article 17, Commercial Intensive; Amending Article 19, Commercial, Professional And Office; Amending Article 22, Open Rural; And Amending Article 32 Of The Land Development Code, Definitions; allowing for adult day care centers in commercial districts; allowing for child care facilities as a permitted use in the Commercial, Neighborhood and Commercial, General districts; adding a definition for Assisted Living Facility.(First public hearing held July 8, 2019). | | Financial/Economic Impact to Future Years Budgeting Process or Effect on Citizens: | | | Action Requested and Recommendation: | Consider LDC19-007, an Ordinance amending Article 15,Commercial, Neighborhood; Amending Article 15-A, Commercial, Neighborhood-American Beach; Amending Article 16, Commercial, General; Of The Land Development Code, Amending Article 16-A, Commercial, General -American Beach; Amending Article 17, Commercial Intensive; Amending Article 19, Commercial, Professional And Office; Amending Article 22, Open Rural; And Amending Article 32 Of The Land Development Code, Definitions; allowing for adult day care centers in commercial districts; allowing for child care facilities as a permitted use in the Commercial, Neighborhood and Commercial, General districts; adding a definition for Assisted Living Facility.
